Dodd Distinction in How Mesey Raised Funds
Senator Dodd told the senate ethics committee that $100,000 raised at two dinners for him was tax free gifts not campaign funds. Associates say there is a legal distinction between fund raising dinners and dinners for a official’s personal use. The Washington Post reported Dodd received $54,000 from a 1961 dinner and $47,000 from a 1963 dinner. The ethics inquiry follows columnists Pearson and Anderson’s charges that he diverted campaign funds for personal use.
